What is APPROVE

APPROVE is a platform designed to help equipment sellers offer financing to their customers through a network of competing equipment finance companies. The platform offers three unique benefits for equipment sellers looking to give customers a better financing experience:

  1. Integrated Financing at the Point of Sale

    Once customers complete a simple finance application via APPROVE, that application is sent to a network of top equipment financing lenders who compete to claim, approve, and provide the best possible rate options for your customers.

  3. Complete Financing Management Platform
    APPROVE gives you all the tools you need to track and manage every aspect of the financing process.
